About This Home
NOW'S YOUR CHANCE! Charm, character, & absolute pride of ownership is at the heart of this craftsman bungalow! This beauty is nearly 100 years old and is loaded with old school charm yet lives much newer. You will love the bright, updated kitchen & fresh bathrooms. The front porch was jacked up & had a new foundation poured - this will easily be one of your most treasured spaces! There are hardwood floors throughout most of the home (there is no carpet) and the finishings are neutral & move-in ready. The previous owners put on the 2nd floor addition & family room, and the three bedrooms upstairs are spacious and let in an abundance of natural light. The inside is beautiful but wait until you see the outside; vibrant perennial gardens will be blooming in every direction this spring. There is a mound of color in every direction. Despite its age - you wouldn't know it! The important things have been replaced and updated: the windows were replaced with Marvin, the electric was upgraded to 200 amp and a new panel was installed, the water heater was replaced in 2024, the furnace was new in 2018 & the A/C was replaced in 2012. The current owner contracted with Perma Seal to completely waterproof the basement; there has been no seepage since the work was done. The location is not to be missed as well - it is only blocks to the Fox River and close to quaint downtown Geneva. It is also walking distance to the loved Harrison Elementary School. This home has it all!! The seller is sad to be leaving but it is time for the next lucky family to call this adorable bungalow 'home.'
